Intro: AmDmAmDmVerse 1.
Am
Eight seconds ain't very long to live
Dm
But tonight he barely made five
Am
He gave all that he had to give
E
But the big bull won tonight
Am
He climbs into that old pickup
Dm
Black coffee in his hands
Am
Well a rodeo ain't no ordinary life
EAm
But a cowboy ain't no ordinary man
Dm
Well he rides just to keep his spirit alive
Am
Makin' money for his wife and kids
Dm
He tried other kinds of work
E
But nothing ever seemed to fit
Dm
Oh he loves the smell of a Brahma bull
AmDm
The feel of leather in his hands
Am
Well Rodeo ain't no ordinary life
E7Am
But a cowboy ain't no ordinary man
Verse 2.
He's got a gold buckle on his mind
And he don't ride to lose
Tomorrow night he'll nod and yell outside
And they'll turn his future loose
No matter how bad he hurts
He'll tip his hat to the fans
Rodeo ain't no ordinary life
But a cowboy ain't no ordinary man
Repeat ChorusEnding:* (Acapella)
Ain't no ordinary
AmDmEAmDmAm
He's an extra ordinary man
